Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Evanston, IL: Clark Publishing Company, 1956. The June, 1956 issue of Fate Magazine (issue no. 75) in Raymond A. Palmer's now-legendary paranormal-reporting non-fiction enterprise, which began with, in its first issue, Kenneth Arnold's cover account of flying crescents which "skipped like saucers across a pond", an event which, for whatever reason, kicked off the modern era of UFO events. After that, Fate introduced countless events which remain, to this day, fodder for paranormal documentaries and investigation. 12mo, illustrated perfect-bound wraps, 130 pp. A Near Fine copy - very near fine, with just touch edge wear on a small scale, light sunning at rear cover top and bottom (see scans), and of course some modest age-toning to the newsprint paper pages, which remain supple. High Grade, particularly for a periodical which often shows substantial wear from use. See scans. See the scanned image of the contents page for the articles herein, which cover such topics as UFOS Over Japan; Parapsychology; Ghost on British Highways; Teleportation; Precognition; Appolonius of Tyana; Transformation; Time Travel; The Headless Horseman of Belmont; an Unruly Poltergeist; and of course much, much else, including the standard Departments, always engrossing in themselves, all on various other paranormal or inexplicable phenomena. Interior art and photography is largely uncredited. A piece of paranormal history, and an example of a unique branch of Americana, in very highly collectible condition. Please see scans. l50n.…

Hard Cover. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Third year of this anthology for young people, with an illustrated calendar noting holy days, short stories, essays, plays, games, songs, and poetry; themed on Jewish history & holidays. A scarce survivor: many, one expects, were burned by the anti-woke mobs of post-Weimar Germany. Founded in 1928 by Cohn, a philologist, rabbi, and playwright, the Jugendkalender in its early years endorsed the German-Jewish identity, and was popular with that community. After 1933, though, its focus shifted to stories of emigration and articles countering antisemitic propaganda. Cohn was arrested in 1935, but managed to escape to Amsterdam in 1936, reaching the USA in 1939, where he died in 1948. Small hardcover, as pictured. Text in German, a little in fraktur type; illustrations; paper band inside the rear cover holding a puzzle/game, Der Turmbau zur Babel, on a single folded sheet; rubberstamped name, Eva Speier, on free endsheet. Speier, born in 1919, escaped Germany with her parents in 1936, moving to Lincoln, Nebraska, where she became a pharmacist. She died in Iowa in 2008. Book shows some wear, splits along spine now mended; smudges, small stains, minor nicks, corners bumped; tanned ad laid in, with some adjacent tanning. 128 pages, b/w illustrations & a few photos. Size: 7" by 8¼". Magda Nachman-Acharya, Wolfgang Hamburger, Edith Samuel, et al. (illustrator).…
